10 Spoke Camaro Rims... Strip Paint??
I remember seeing a thread around here talking about how you can strip the paint off the silver painted 10 spoke Camaro rims and they have a machined face under the paint like the 35th anniversary Camaro rims. If anyone has any info on this or knows of the thread, let me know. Thank you!

i was thinking of having it done to my C5s. you are best finding someone with a sand blaster to take it off, then you can have it machined to get the anniversary look, or polished.
im surprised you dont have a sand blaster...if you did, id pay you for use of it to do mine.

Do you know if they have a machined finish under the factory silver paint?

You could use aircraft stripper to strip the clear and paint off. I have always wanted to strip down a set and polish the outer lip and outer flat parts of the of the spokes, then paint the reassessed areas.

I wanted to do mine with a NBM or black background and a machined lip and face. Try a search, there was a guy who did some anniversary replicas to his. Main problem is centercaps to match.
